Abstract
⺠An agent can make an observable but non-contractible investment. ⺠A principal then offers to collaborate with the agent to provide a public good. ⺠The agent may have private information about his valuation. ⺠Private information may either decrease or increase the investment incentives. ⺠The impact of private information depends on the sequence of events.
